Description

CHLHHAGE reports the age of the child household member selected for the child labor module (CHLHHINDEX).

The information in CHLHHAGE is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.

Comparability

CHLHHAGE has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

CHLHHAGE is a country-specific variable, and it is not included in any phase of standard DHS questionnaire or the child labor module.
